I'm Sharon Lee, a Certified High Performance and Business Coach specializing in helping entrepreneurs launch, scale, and lead at their highest level.

I don't coach around those things. I coach through them. What we work on together: - Launching or scaling your business with a clear, executable plan - Sales strategies and Marketing plans - Breaking through mindset and emotional blocks that are costing you revenue - Recovering your time, energy, and focus so you can lead effectively - Navigating major life transitions without losing business momentum - Building the confidence, clarity, and systems that hold when life gets hard - AI Business automations too Certifications & Training: - Certified High Performance Coach (CHPC) โ€” Brendon Burchard - Tony Robbins Strategic Interventionist - iPEC Certified Professional Coach (CPC) โ€” ICF Accredited - International Coach Federation (ICF) Member - Certified Master Life Coach (CMLC) - Certified Business Coach (CBC) - Certified NLP Practitioner - ACE Certified Wellness Coach - ACE Certified Nutrition Coach - Certified Career Coach - Claude Code expert Featured in LA Times and Thrive Global. Client Spotlight: A business owner came to me mid-divorce, managing a team, and completely unable to focus. Revenue had plateaued for two years. Within 90 days we restructured her priorities, worked through the emotional weight she had been carrying into every sales conversation, and rebuilt her week around her actual capacity. She signed three new clients that quarter, her best in four years. This is the work. It's not just strategy. It's the whole person. All sessions are private, 1:1, and conducted virtually via Zoom. If you're ready to stop spinning your wheels and start building with real momentum, send me a message. I work with a small number of clients at a time so I can give you my full attention.

I am a psychologist with 15+ years of diverse experience across research, writing, education, and applied practice. In addition to ongoing training in Family Systems Psychotherapy (Association of Systemic Therapists, since April 2024), I work as a psychology writer, freelance educator, and coach. My work spans: โ€“ Research and evidence-based content writing โ€“ Lecturing, webinars, and psychoeducational programs โ€“ Coaching and consulting in areas such as emotional regulation, parenting, psychosomatics, and performance under pressure (including trading) I began my career as a volunteer working with socially disadvantaged individuals and groups, primarily with children and youth. Over several years, I advanced in my career and gained certifications as a peer educator and life coach. This enabled me to take on a more active role in teaching and coaching. Leveraging my experience, I helped train several generations of volunteers, leading workshops, courses, and seminars to equip them with the skills and knowledge necessary to impact their communities positively. I am also a certified assertive communication trainer and a trainer for future assertive communication trainers. I am a certified Life Coach specializing in various areas such as Goal Success, Mindfulness, and Cognitive Behavioral Life Coaching. I hold a Professional Counselling and Relationship Counselling Diploma. I hold a Complete Hypnotherapy & Hypnosis Certification Diploma. I am a certified NLP Master Practitioner. I put all the knowledge I gained into my work and my writing. I worked as an HR consultant and educator. My main professional interest lies in the correlation between physical and mental health, which I have explored in depth through acquiring a Fitness Instructor/Conditional Trainer license. This holistic approach extends to my certifications as a Meditation Guide and a Nutrition Consultant, allowing me to delve into stress management and different coping styles from a comprehensive perspective. I have broad experience in academic writing, conducting psychological research and writing reports, essays, and various papers. I have also written countless articles on different psychological subjects, and I can adjust my writing style to accommodate any audience. As an employee, I am committed to excellence, hardworking, well-organized, self-sufficient, and reliable. I am always eager to learn and perfect my skills. I am looking for a perfect project in which I can fully invest my talent and effort.

You have valuable knowledge but no time to write. You start writing but struggle to finish. You've hired freelancers before and received generic, AI-sounding content that lacked personality, authority, and depth. Or perhaps you have a completed manuscript that still needs professional editing, eBook formatting, Amazon KDP publishing, and self-publishing preparation before it's truly ready for readers. Great ideas don't deserve to die in a draft folder. That's exactly why I exist. Behind every coach, entrepreneur, consultant, thought leader, and author with a successful nonfiction eBook is a skilled eBook ghostwriter, book editor, and publishing partner who helped bring that vision to life. I'm that partner. I am a professional eBook Ghostwriter, Nonfiction eBook Writer, Book Editor, and Amazon KDP Book Publishing Specialist who helps authors transform ideas into compelling manuscripts, professionally formatted eBooks, and publication-ready books prepared for Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP), Amazon paperback publishing, and other major self-publishing platforms. ๐— ๐˜† ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—น๐—ฒ ๐—ด๐—ผ๐—ฒ๐˜€ ๐—ฏ๐—ฒ๐˜†๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ฑ ๐˜„๐—ฟ๐—ถ๐˜๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด.
